Landstar Questions

Have read the whole 390 pages, but could not find the answer. Maybe someone went through the orientation recently and can help me out here.

I have orientation scheduled for Monday. When is actually truck registration needed during the process? I still have it with the company I was leased on. Will they have all the docs for me to get a new registration at the orientation (insurance info, signed agreement etc)?

Do they have another inspection in Rockford? Where they will require updated registration?

 

Are you getting you base plate thru landstar...

 

You should have gotten the whole shebang already. Plates, permits, decals. All comes at once.

 

I’ve spent time reading a lot tonight on Landstar. What I’ve gathered is that I can, and will make money as long as I run smart. Thanks for all the help!

 

I have my own plates, and the orientation is still coming in two days. So they going to do the registration also? When I changed companies before, I had to do my dmv stuff myself. Just wonder how its done here.

 

You need to call whomever your dealing with at the verification center that processed your app and find out.

Typically you're not scheduled for orientation until your 100% squared away.

The moment you leave orientation, you're going to start paying workman's comp.

My trucks are all through them, and when everything is approved, they overnight all the things I listed.

 

Can anyone of you veteran Landstar drivers tell me what kind of discount you can get on new trucks for being employed at Landstar? Someone told my husband you can get a discount...wonderi wohow much..he is considering getting a different truck..

 

I know you're gonna be looking down the gun barrel at about a $700 month or more insurance payment.

 

It varies.... look on the lcapp website and also I know Jefferson Georgia has some flyers up on this subject..... it’d probably be a thousand or two off....

 

Ouch!! Thank you..That's a lot!! He wants either a peterbilt or Kenworth...I'm trying to talk him out of it!! Just afraid to take that leap..right now his truck pmnt is a lil over $500..
